Why choose a 250Kgs SWL Free Standing Jib Crane - Under Braced? Answer - It is all about the headroom.

ULS manufactures our under-braced jib cranes by utilizing a Steel I-Beam as the swinging jib arm and adds all the supporting bracing under this main crane arm. This design means the height required above the working height is kept to an absolute minimum creating a low headroom jib crane. A perfect solution where headroom is restricted due to various reasons such as the Jib crane being used inside a tool room, overhead restrictions such as lights or pipes, or when restrictions such as roof height have to be considered.

What difference between the Over Braced profile track and the trolley Jib crane to the Under-braced I Beam Jib Crane?

A Jib Crane manufactured from a steel profile section has an internal push travel trolley and the bracing is manufactured above the working jib arm. an I-Beam Under-braced Jib Crane is manufactured from a Steel I Beam with the bracing underneath. The Profile Jib Crane is Lighter and generally lower in cost, but they need more headroom and can only have a push trolley fitted. An underbraced Jib crane is great for low-height situations such as a Tool Room and is perfect if a powered trolley is going to be used with the crane.

Why Choose a 250Kgs SWL Free Standing Jib Crane - Under Braced?

There are many advantages to purchasing an under-braced free-standing Jib Crane, the main benefit is the overall height is less than a standard free standing over braced jib crane, making them extremely versatile within a factory where you might be restricted due to the height of the building, or you need the Jib to be under pipes or lighting or inside a plant room or tool room. Another advantage of the I-Beam style Jib Crane is if you require to fit an electric hoist with powered travel, they fit neatly onto the Jib arm to give that powered travel.

Because of the simple design, they are inexpensive to both buy and maintain compared to other cranes. Under normal working conditions, they will only need an industry standard 12 monthly service. We at Ultimate Lifting Solutions offer this service and can offer various maintenance/service packages to meet your requirements.

What makes up a 250Kgs SWL Free Standing Jib Crane - Under Braced?

I-Beam Jib cranes are made up of two main parts, the upright column and the horizontal Jib arm made from steel I-beam, therefore a manual free-standing I-beam jib crane does not have many parts to maintain, making them extremely reliable, and needs minimal maintenance, which in turn means they do not break down, so no loss in production time.

How do 250Kgs SWL Free Standing Jib Crane - Under Braced Swing Jib work?

A standard swing Jib as mentioned has two main parts - The Pillar and the Arm. The arm can rotate from left to right and vice versa, the swing or slew angle is set at 270° as standard. On all our swing jibs up to 250Kgs, they will slew with ease without the requirements of powered assistance, hence keeping the costs down. If you do not require the full 270° we can fit slew limits to restrict what angle the Jib arm swings to

The arm on our Jib cranes is supplied ready to have a trolley and then hoist fitted to it, this trolley will move up and down the full length of the arm, giving you the reach and flexibility to reach into corners of your factory with ease. 

What else is required for 250Kgs SWL Free Standing Jib Crane - Under Braced? 

You now have your Swing Jib fitted. You now need a hoist, these fit easily via a trolley (push or powered trolleys are available).  You just need to decide what hoist do you need and what style of trolley you require. To keep the costs down a manual hoist is the cheapest option, but you will not save on production time, as they are slow and do need assistance by hand, and sometimes for larger items, you might not be able to reach them. The second option and best option is an Electric Hoist, these hoists enable you to easily lift and lower your components quickly, cutting down on production time, and it will soon pay for itself in time saved. Ultimate lifting solutions can supply various electrical hoists from all the top manufacturers such as Stahl, Yale, Demag, GIS, Liftket, and Demag to name a few hoists we have supplied over the years
